Customer Reviews

Cook smarter, lose weight.
This is a really good cookbook if you are looking to lose weight. I thought the recipes were relatively easy to do and didn't take too much time. I would recommend this to anyone, but especially to those that are familiar with the Weight Watches methods. Also liked--Goodbye, Fatty! Hello, Skinny! How I Lost Weight And Still Ate The Foods I Loved-Without Dieting.

Weight Watchers Repeats
Some great recipes, I use at least 3/4 recipes out of this book on a regular basis. The reason I only gave it a 2 star is because, unfortunately, I found that quite a few of the recipes are repeated from previous Weight Watchers recipe books which I already have. This is annoying as I feel like I've paid double. If you haven't got other Weight Watchers books or magazines, then I recommend this book.

Brilliant Cook Book
I think this book is absolutely brilliant. I have tried quite a few recipes already and all of them have been so tasty and I have really enjoyed preparing and cooking them. The tips in the book are also really helpful.
